COUNTRY: MALAWI
MATERIALS USED: CHARCOAL
Coronavirus has devastated a lot of people in the whole world as a whole. In the midst of all this art has been used to greatly to inform people and give hope to people. The word freedom in most countries is just a word that most hope to experience but to an African who doesn’t know the hardships of life, Freedom is all she knows and Peace of mind.
Expressed through the gesture of the finger in the mouth, something which is taken as a death sentence during this Corona Virus Pandemic just shows how free-minded she is. Showing to all that there’s hope and all we need is to have faith, human beings are a resilient species.
